But, don't know why, although I've already done this a couple of years ago, I don't succeed in a) finding the right way to program the map file code and b) finding a working WMS example. Many links are dead ( for example from this site: <a href="http://en.giswiki.net/wiki/WMS">http://en.giswiki.net/wiki/WMS</a> ), or without instructions.</div><div><br></div><div>Can someone point me to a working WMS server and give me a hint how the map file layer should look like?
